What a cool app   I had heard of geocaching before, but never really thought to give it a try until I saw this app. The starter version helped me find my first geocache. Who knew there would be so many of them located right around my own hometown? I liked the experience so much that I purchased the full version and signed up online to track my findings. If you're the least bit curious, try the free version. It works very well.

Hooked   I was very excited to see that they have a free intro version of this app. I wanted to introduce my husband to geocaching and this app was a perfect way to do that without spending the money. After just two geocaches it looks like we'll be downloading the full version...he's hooked! The compass was very accurate.

See things as they are
Usable geocache program - only free one   This program does two things. Explains what geocaches are and allows you to navigate to nearest ones.
Full version has more maps, more options to search but this is a fully functional program.
I got a question: do all geocache progs use same database of caches or will I get different results with competing programs?

Totally inaccurate locations, compass is a disaster.   I have had no success at all with this version of the app and I am really hesitant to spend $10 to buy the full version if this one is so bad. The maps are not very helpful, and accuracy is a major problem. The compass is completely ridiculous--it will send me 40 feet one way, then tell me to go 50 feet in another direction, then send me back in the first direction, but farther than I went before. Going to try some different apps before I consider buying the full version.

It's okay   It's pretty hit or miss on the accuracy. Sometimes it would take me right where I needed ti go, other times it would jump by 100 feet when I wasn't even moving. If they could work on the accuracy issues, I would by the full version

Boo!!!   This app did me no good! I looked for 3 geo's and I was 0/3.... And everytime I was directly on the green arrow and nothing was even there.... My brother got this as well and we went together on the last one I tried and it had him goin 112ft the other way from what mine said! Drop the price alil for the $10 one and I'll get it but goin off the free one it's a no go for me! Not worth it!!

It worked for me.   I found my first cache thanks to this app, but the compass is a little off. I would by the full version but the price is too high.
